Study Notes

Wave Characteristics

  • The relationship between frequency and periodic time of a wave is inverse: as one increases, the other decreases.
  • If the periodic time of a wave is doubled, its frequency is halved.
  • A wave with a frequency of 100 Hz has a periodic time of 0.01 seconds (since frequency x periodic time = 1).
